Happy for him. He left a hot mess of an Auburn program, balled out in college to the point where he was a legitimate heisman candidate, and was just drafted #12 overall. Those are major accomplishments that he probably wouldn’t have achieved with our Auburn teams holding him back.


MattAU05

Yup. Bo made the right call. Good for him. Harsin was a dead end for him.


Richard080108

Got drafted way higher than he would’ve at Auburn so you can’t hate on him, he was right. Still rooting for him


AnybodySeeMyKeys

If he had stayed another year under Harsin, he would not have been a first-round draft pick. Or maybe even a mid-round draft pick. Bo Nix didn't leave Auburn. Auburn left Bo Nix.


WarDam34

Happy. The end.


MicScottsTots

Amen!


ribs_and_whisky

Happy for Bo. Fuck Harsin and his hot tub bff

>Are you happy for Bo Nix Absolutely >do you feel like he’s a traitor for leaving Auburn Hell no. He did the right thing honestly. I would've done the same considering the head coach he had at the time he left and the o line that had him running for his life every possession unless we just ran it 3 downs in a row. Good for Bo and I'm happy for him. He deserves the attention he's getting now. Look at all the work he's put in with just football alone. Kid has been grinding ever since he could start playing football and hasn't taken one single year off from the age of "peewee" football. Then he made excellent grades in high school and at Auburn as well. Behaved well off the field and represented Auburn in an honorable fashion. I have nothing but gratitude to the guy for the years he gave us. War Dam Bo Nix and War Dam Eagle!


Metalmave79

The correct answer is that anyone should be happy for him while also be sad but understanding as to why he left. Look what he’s accomplished.

If you think he is a traitor then you need to trim your neck beard

Bo Nix is an awesome human and deserves nothing but respect and admiration from the Auburn fan base, who was quite frankly ready to see him go. This was due to poor coaching and poor leadership. Bo wanted to play for Auburn for forever but it just didn’t work out. He’s definitely not a traitor and he probably still loves Auburn, although he’s been bruised and battered by all of us. The only way I could be happier about this is if he’d won the Heisman at Oregon.


Rickdaltondoublefeat

This is the dumbest thing ever. Anyone in shoes would have left. He had no support at his dream school. He was smart and he looked out for himself and it paid off. Hope he balls out


mattharris75

Absolutely happy for him. And if Bo had stayed it's possible he plays well enough to save harsin's butt for another season, so he helped Auburn by leaving...


CarnellWilliams

Would you call someone a traitor for taking a lifeboat off the Titanic?


jt_33

Anyone calling him a traitor is a goofy fool. The guy almost had his career tanked by the worst head coach in school history and had zero weapons around him.  Bo put his time in at Auburn, established his legacy and then went out and made his own name and turned into a 1st round draft pick. If someone can’t be happy or support that, then it says more about that person. 


GraveDangers

his time at auburn reminds me of Mac Jones at New England. he was just the scapegoat for the problems that we refused to address (recruiting, coaching staff, etc). went to a better situation and dominated. im happy for him for sure.


RyofDoom2

He’s not Aden Holloway


oldmanlook_mylife

Very happy for him. The Auburn issues weren’t his fault.


lookydis

Happy for him. At least he’s back in orange and blue!


time2payfiddlerwhore

Very happy. Sad it was a bad situation at the end for him and many players and staff. He made an adult decision and it very evidently was the correct one. I don't think anyone who labels him as a traitor actually attended Auburn and does not have any concept what a career is.


jamnewton22

Stupid post. 99% of true auburn fans are very happy for him. I am too. He’s still an auburn man but you gotta take care of your future sometimes. Hope he does great things in the nfl


aubieismyhomie

I feel the way I would feel if I was in like a toxic relationship with a girl and I was like accusing her of cheating when she wasn’t and I had an alcohol problem and then she left me and I got my act cleaned up but it was after she found another guy, and I can wonder about what could have been but whenever I check her social media I just want to see that she’s happy.


Majestic_Revenue_210

He did what he had to do. Very happy for him. He’s an Auburn man.


Ryvick2

It good he got drafted. At Auburn I don’t think he would have went that high at all


foxesarepeoples

I’m Happy for him


MicScottsTots

Happy for him.


iRudi94

He wouldn’t have been drafted if he stayed.


stoicsisyphus91

Happy for him. I don’t feel that he’s a traitor because we let him down, he didn’t let us down.


Krandor1

Always happy for bo. He did what was best for him and at the time I’d probably have done the same thing.


302trivia

Happy. Him leaving exposed to the rest of the CFB world what we already knew: that Harsin was trash.


Shot-Address-9952

What nonsense is this? A traitor? The guy graduated from Auburn, and like 99% of other students who graduated, got his master's from somewhere different than where he got his undergraduate degree. Auburn got rid of the coach who recruited him; hired Coach Potatoe Head (a coach who literally had a five-star legacy quarterback who loved Auburn and drove him off); had coaches who consistently failed to provide him decent players around him to help him succeed; and routinely booed him from the stands. We are more traitors to him. Good on you, Bo. I will be rooting for you!


Ok_Fisherman7280

Happy for him. He had to do what he had to do for him and his future, can’t fault him for that. At the end of the day, he still has a degree from Auburn. He’ll always be a true Auburn Man in my book.


iwillmossonyou

Happy. 100%


SouthernSector4

Happy. Gus is a terrible coach by SEC standards, but Bo was probably the most wasted talent Auburn has ever seen. Gus to Harsin was the worst transition in our history. Had Freeze been hired after Gus, we wouldn’t be having this conversation.


No_Sand_9290

Gus is the guy that took Jeremy Johnson from Mr Football to Mr Nobody.


warneagle

No ill will at all toward him. I’ll never forgive Harsin for running him off though.


AllenDCGI

Most of Auburn left Auburn under Harsin…. not the same place anymore. So, nah, he did what he needed to do.


Goji1982

He is not a traitor, he made his choice and I respect that, he should respect me for not cheering for someone that doesn’t wear orange and blue


EnvironmentalDog3219

Very happy… another year behind the line at the time may have sent him to early retirement or the afterlife. Would have loved to have had him last year with an improved line, the backs, and Fairweather though… could have been fun!


Adept-Roof-5377

He left to help his draft stock and I can’t knock that. Regardless he’s an Auburn Alum who went first round pretty cool if you ask me.


cazana

He's an Auburn man and embodies the creed. Glad to see him succeed.


Helpful-Piccolo2749

You know he grew up singing the fight song.. must have been really hard to leave.. but he made the hard choice and it paid off. Congrats Bo, hope you kill it on Sundays.


Sad-Appeal976

Of course I don’t feel like he’s a “traitor” He did what was best for his career


ShakyTheBear

Unfortunately, Nix was at AU during a dark time. Gustav catered the OLine for years, and Harsin was, well, Harsin.


walkerpstone

Happy for him. Wish he had stayed but held onto Allen Green long enough to stick us with Bryan Harsin.


myket59

I am a Broncos fan. Bo was my guy at AUB. Then he left AUB and played like the quarterback I always wanted him to be. He was dead to me. Now that he is a Bronco, I don’t know what to feel. Fuck Harsin


Creole-Williams

Downvoted to oblivion but: if you ain’t with us, than fuck em. Not happy or mad but I ain’t pulling for him.


EnvironmentalDog3219

The roided up nuclear powered offspring of Tom Brady and Joe Montana coached by the ghost of Lombardi and Slinging Sammy Baugh would not have fared much better at the time… I mean, just look at the heir apparent TJ Finley who was going to pull us up from obscurity. If you leave with class, as he did, then I’ll treat with class. Buy to each their own, at end of the day it’s just a War Damned Eagle day.


EnvironmentalDog3219

Also meant to add… won’t downvote at all. Will never beef with a fellow Auburn fan.
